Editor’s Note (from “Sach Khand Journal”):
“There has always been a great mystery surrounding Shiv Dayal Singh (the founder of Radhasoami) and the origination of his spiritual ministry. James Bean has been diligently researching the lost history of Soamiji Maharaj’s reputed relationship with one of Tulsi Sahib’s successors, Maharaj Girdhari Sahib. He has uncovered a very important, but mostly hidden, chapter in the evolution of Radhasoami. We are thankful for his painstaking work in this regard.” (Prof. David Lane)
Link to the original version of the article published in, “Sach Khand -- The Journal of Radhasoami Studies”, Prof. David Lane, MSAC Philosophy Group:
For many years some scholars and others curious about Sant Mat history have been puzzled by references in Radhasoami literature to a living master that Soami Ji Maharaj associated with and apparently was very devoted to. His name was Girdhari Sahib.
